    Make your own - No waste - 5 gallon (25# feed) bucket feeder for about $3

    I just built the bucket feeder and only made one hole. I see some have multiple feeding holes. Should I cut one more or leave it. I have 8 chickens if that makes a difference. Thanks.

    LOTS of feed being wasted

    I also just built a no waste feeder but I only have one hole opening. Should I put more holes in the bucket? I haven't used mine yet and didn't realize they would crawl halfway in...too funny!!

    When do I introduce grit to chicks????

    I put the grit with their food in their feeder. Mine are 5 weeks old and I feed them meal worms. I also started putting a little grit in a separate bowl in case one is not getting enough. So far...they are doing great!!

    I have 8 chicks that are approx 5 weeks old and they spent their first night in the coop on Monday. They are doing fine with no light and the temps are in the 40's at night.
